Hello and welcome.

The records in Italy are available on microfilm from the LDS library and can be viewed at any LDS family history center- they have them all over the word. Their website is: www.familysearch.org

BUT...and here's the important part, you really need to know the exact town that they came from. The records aren't centralized. If you don't know the town, then you'll have to do some research to see if you can find it.

Sometimes ship records list a town so look up the manifests for any known family member. Sometimes military records also include the town they came from....ask older relatives....look for old letters, whatever you can think of. Knowing the town is crucial.

Hope this helps.
